"Miss Xiao, please wait."
Chun Nuan felt frustrated, see, she knew it wouldn’t be that easy.
"I have so things to take care of, I’ll head back first..."
"Miss Xiao, if Seventh Young Master didn’t instruct us to see you off, he definitely won’t let you leave the courtyard."
Chun Nuan... I’ve already got a face like this, why are you all still sticking around for him?
"Is there a possibility that Seventh Young Master forgot to call for your departure because he’s worried about that Miss Liu’s illness?"
Chun Nuan was very thankful for Zhao Minghua’s tily appearance, now uncertain about his intentions.
The main issue was that Master Zhou Qi had agreed to help send winter clothes to the Northern Desert without unreasonable demands, Zhao Minghua coming here causing trouble wasn’t good.
"No way, there’s definitely a reason why Seventh Young Master is keeping you here."
Chun Nuan... talking logic with a bandit.
If she’s irritated, she won’t leave either, she’ll just sit there and wait.
About half an hour later, Master Zhou Qi hurriedly arrived.
"Are you Doctor Xiao’s granddaughter?"
"Yes."
Definitely the real deal.
Chun Nuan looked at Master Zhou Qi, what did his gaze an towards her?
"Do you truly not understand dicine?"
Ah, how was she supposed to respond to this?
Truthfully, she understood it, quite well actually.
But then...
"Co with ."
He grabbed Chun Nuan’s hand and pulled her toward the inner room.
"Master Zhou Qi..."
Chun Nuan was so frightened that her beauty paled, what did this an?
There was no ntion of any deals or rewards earlier, has he changed his tune now?
Just like a child’s face in June which changes unpredictably.
"Don’t make a fuss, go check on her."
Check what?
You’re a grown man, pulling a young woman through the inner courtyard, the passing servants seeing this scene all lowered their heads, seemingly fearing they’d miss the sunrise tomorrow if they didn’t react fast enough.
"Miss Liu has been ill, constantly ill, Seventh Young Master has searched everywhere for famous doctors but hasn’t been able to cure her. If you can cure her, I’ll protect the Xiao family."
What does this an?
Chun Nuan looked at Master Zhou Qi, just how much was he willing to risk?
This Miss Liu, was she really just an outside mistress?
Well, even if treating her, she’s just an ordinary doctor, the greatest taboo for a doctor wandering deep in a mansion is: saying less and seeing less.
No matter what kind of person Miss Liu is, it seems Master Zhou Qi is earnest.
He dragged Chun Nuan into the inner chamber, leading her to Miss Liu.
"Check her out."
Chun Nuan looked at the thin woman on the bed and felt a sense of sympathy, what was going on here?
Imdiately the servant brought a stool, signaling Chun Nuan to sit.
Chun Nuan sat down, grasping the woman’s hand to take her pulse.
Goodness, this woman’s hand was as soft as if it had no bones.
However... however, why was this pulse so strange?
"How is it?"
Seeing Chun Nuan examine the pulse, Master Zhou Qi knew he had found the right person: Doctor Xiao’s granddaughter was no ordinary person.
"I need to look again."
She then checked the pulse on the left hand, asked Miss Liu to cooperate, inspected her eyelids, extended her tongue, and inquired about her eating habits.
"The young lady can’t eat; she sustains herself daily with bird’s nest and ginseng soup for nourishnt."
Chun Nuan... such is the life of wealthy people.
Whether sick or not, they always resort to bird’s nest and ginseng soup. They probably don’t know that excessive supplents can lead to big problems sotis.
Nevertheless, this woman in question...
"I ntioned, if you can cure Miss Liu, I’ll shield the Xiao family."
Master Zhou Qi seed like he’d seen a slight glimr in the darkness, staring at Chun Nuan, wanting her to accept.
"This condition is rarely seen; I need to go back and check the dical texts."
Was this true?
Master Zhou Qi looked at Chun Nuan, feeling sowhat unsure.
"Fine, I’ll have A Zhuang escort you back, then you bring the dical books here."
Chun Nuan... they were guarding against her quite intensely.
Were they afraid she’d harm Miss Liu?
Chun Nuan was escorted out of Liu Xiang Garden by A Zhuang.
"You’re called A Zhuang, right?"
"Yes." The burly man was brief with words, but thankfully still agreeable.
"I’ll call you Uncle A Zhuang then."
A Zhuang... many call by my na, even three-year-olds can call A Zhuang, but being called uncle is rare, why does it feel so heartwarming?
"Uncle A Zhuang, Seventh Young Master wants to cure Miss Liu, if I succeed he’ll protect the Xiao family, I desperately want this opportunity."
A Zhuang gave a puzzled look at Chun Nuan, was calling him uncle a way to get his help?
Yet, he had no skills himself, couldn’t help her cure the illness.
"I just need to ask a few questions, of course, these questions might touch on Seventh Young Master’s privacy, but I’m not snooping, rather it’s required for diagnosing Miss Liu’s condition. And I promise, whatever I hear or see will never leak a single word outside."
Unless she didn’t want to live anymore would she gossip about Master Zhou Qi’s privacy in Changzhou.
